            Someone is holding something back in your family.
            Ain't it like most people, I'm no different. We love to talk on things we don't know about.

                  I'm more blue blood than you... I'm 1st cousin 12 times (generations) removed.

                  The Bard's grandmother Abigail Webb is my Great Grandmother 12 generations ago.

                  I guess we're related and rather closely too.

                  By chance I'm related to 17 past (modern day) Prophets, and 2nd cousin to Russell M. Nelson twice removed.

                        I was told I was a descendent of King Henry the eights bastard daughters. I couldn,t find it though on family search or relative finder. Is there a way to find out how close we are related to neighbors thigh?

                            I have been messing around in the Family Search app today. A few tidbits:

                            - Found a relative who became controller of the royal household in England. Went on a pilgrimage to the Holy Land, got sick, and died in Jerusalem.

                            - Found a knight who died in the Tower of London after being suspected of an affair with Anne Boleyn.

                            - The furthest back I've found any relative so far is a German king named Aminadab born in the year 125:
                            "I think it was King Benjamin who said 'you sorry ass shitbags who have no skills that the market values also have an obligation to have the attitude that if one day you do in fact win the PowerBall Lottery that you will then impart of your substance to those without.'"

                              35 Now there was one among them who was a Nephite by birth, who had once belonged to the church of God but had dissented from them.

                              36 And it came to pass that he turned him about, and behold, he saw through the cloud of darkness the faces of Nephi and Lehi; and behold, they did shine exceedingly, even as the faces of angels. And he beheld that they did lift their eyes to heaven; and they were in the attitude as if talking or lifting their voices to some being whom they beheld.

                              37 And it came to pass that this man did cry unto the multitude, that they might turn and look. And behold, there was power given unto them that they did turn and look; and they did behold the faces of Nephi and Lehi.

                              38 And they said unto the man: Behold, what do all these things mean, and who is it with whom these men do converse?

                              39 Now the man’s name was Aminadab. And Aminadab said unto them: They do converse with the angels of God.

                              40 And it came to pass that the Lamanites said unto him: What shall we do, that this cloud of darkness may be removed from overshadowing us?

                              41 And Aminadab said unto them: You must repent, and cry unto the voice, even until ye shall have faith in Christ, who was taught unto you by Alma, and Amulek, and Zeezrom; and when ye shall do this, the cloud of darkness shall be removed from overshadowing you.
                              So either SU and MPF will claim that Joseph Smith appropriated the name when writing the Book of Mormon, or else they'll someday be in a similar position as Aminadab?

                                Not long ago an obituary appeared in the Salt Lake Tribune that said the recently departed had "died doing what he enjoyed most—watching BYU lose."
